'''Bunnpris''' is a [[Norway|Norwegian]] [[retail chain]] with 216 [[grocery store]]s in 2011 in Norway, primarily in [[Sør-Trøndelag]], [[Møre og Romsdal]] and [[Oslo]], but also many in [[Northern Norway]]. The stores are managed by '''I. K. Lykke''' run by the fifth generation Lykke.

==History==
It all started in 1830 when Iver Knudsen Lykke started exporting [[millstone]]s by ship to [[Southern Norway]] and [[Eastern Norway]]. Because he usually was paid in agricultural products, Lykke started a fat store in [[Trondheim]], and from the 1860s it was exported to [[England]]. The third generation was [[Ivar Lykke (politician)|Ivar Lykke]], who was [[Prime Minister of Norway]] 1926 to 1928.

In 1981 [[Trond Lykke]], fifth generation, started the low-price store Bunnpris at [[Øya]] in Trondheim. Since then the company has expanded throughout the country. In 2006 a number of unsatisfied [[ICA AB|ICA]] [[franchising|franchise]]es have switched to Bunnpris, escalating the growth of the chain.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.bunnpris.no/bunnpris_buran.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724174611/http://bunnpris.no/bunnpris_buran.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=2011-07-24 |title=Bunnpris på fremmarsj |author=Adresseavisen |author-link=Adresseavisen |language=Norwegian |accessdate=2007-01-28 }}</ref>
